Dr. Strangedrone On Thursday, October 13th, the Strauss Center is hosting Dr. Nicholas Weaver, founder of Skerry Technologies, as he discusses a significant new weapon on the battlefield: the small autonomous drone. Small drones have already changed the landscape of war across armed conflicts in the past decade, from Syria, to Mexico, to Ukraine. The future of drone usage on the battlefield is constantly evolving. The cost of drones has dropped and problems have emerged between what the human controllers want the drone to do, and what the drone is actually programmed to do. Rather than banning drones entirely, Dr. Weaver offers suggestions for how to prepare for drone-led conflicts in the future.
This event is free and open to the public. No RSVP required. Lunch will be served. For more information on this event, contact Susan Crane at scrane@austin.utexas.edu.

This panel discussion will explore the ramifications of Texas's social media law from legal and technical perspectives. Lunch will be provided. Please see the link for more details and to RSVP.

A Conversation with Sherry Boschert Join the Center for Women in Law on October 19, 2022, for a discussion with Sherry Boschert, Author of 37 Words: Title IX and Fifty Years of Fighting Sex Discrimination.
Half a century of legal battles and social backlash revolve around a law that girls and women wield to demand fairness in education — a law called Title IX. 37 Words is the first book to tell the complete history of Title IX through the gutsy people behind it, from women denied jobs at the law’s beginnings to students struggling against sexual assault today. Their intersecting narratives offer a timeless playbook for anyone who is horrified by current attacks on women’s rights and is wondering what to do about them.

Baseball Diplomacy: U.S. & Mexico On Thursday, October 20, the Strauss Center welcomes Dr. Cecilia Farfán Mendez, Head of Security Research Programs at the Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies at UC San Diego, for a talk on “Baseball Diplomacy and the State of U.S.-Mexico Cooperation.” This talk is part of our Brumley Speaker Series.
In this talk, Dr. Farfán will discuss how, amidst over 100,000 overdose deaths in the U.S., with 35,000 annual homicides and more than 100,000 missing people in Mexico, bilateral security cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico could not be more pressing, yet continues to be one of the most complicated areas of the relationship between these two neighbors. She will contemplate whether, almost one year after the announcement of the Bicentennial Framework for Security, Public Health and Safe Communities, the two nations are on track to resolving these important security challenges.
This event is free and open to the public. Lunch will be served. For more information, contact Brittany Horton at brittany.horton@austin.utexas.edu. Full event information: https://law.utexas.edu/calendar/2022/10/20/70690/ - 12:30pm 2022-10-20T13:30-05:00

THE ART OF COMMUNICATING The Athenaeum presents a Master Class with Anna Deavere Smith. Students, faculty and staff are invited to a special presentation by the noted writer, director, and performer, known for her plays Fire in the Mirror and Twilight: Los Angeles 1992, as well as television and movies, including "The Practice," "The West Wing," "Nurse Jackie," and "Inventing Anna." Smith explores moments of crisis from multiple points of view. She then creates dramatic works in which she performs excerpts of interviews. Her works suggest that audience members could step beyond their personal worldviews to grasp a larger understanding of the problems that plague our society. This will be an incredible, unique opportunity for students of law, communicating, performance, and policy.

FREE SPEECH WEEK EVENT The Bech-Loughlin First Amendment Center and the Asia Policy Program welcome Nury Turkel, Chair of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom, to discuss his new book "No Escape: The True Story of China’s Genocide of the Uyghurs".
"No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs" is a harrowing personal account of the biggest human rights crisis of the twenty-first century. It describes conditions in the Uyghur homeland, referred to by the Chinese government as the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. In the past few years, the entire region has been turned into an intensive surveillance state, with millions placed in modern-day “re-education” camps in what is the largest mass detention of an ethno-religious group since the Holocaust.
Join us in conversation with Nury Turkel and Dr. Sheena Greitens, Director of the Asia Policy Program at UT, to discuss this memoir and the questions it raises regarding the US and global policy response to the Chinese Communist Party.
Event will be held at the LBJ Bass Lecture Hall.
Lunch will be offered beginning at 11:45am. Visitors may park for free in Lot 38.
Registration at the link is appreciated for planning purposes but not required for attendance. Thank you! Full event information: https://law.utexas.edu/calendar/2022/10/21/70066/ - 1:30pm 2022-10-21T14:30-05:00
